Chapter 266 The Prince Faints at Blood
The sword mercilessly pierced the princess' chest, and blood gushed out like a fountain, splashing on the ground to form a pool of blood. The princess fell to the ground in pain, her face as pale as paper.
The prince's eyes widened in shock, unable to believe what was happening before his eyes. He rushed forward, hugged the princess tightly, and cried out in grief: "Jingshu! Jingshu, wake up!" His voice was filled with endless sorrow and despair.
The prince tried to cover the wound with trembling hands, trying to stop the blood from flowing, but it was too late. The princess's injuries were too severe, and blood continued to flow out of the wound, staining the prince's clothes red. Her face became paler and her breath was so weak that it was almost unnoticeable, as if she would die at any time.
But the assassin mercilessly drew out his sword and stabbed the prince again. Facing this sudden attack, the prince had no time to react and could only close his eyes in despair, waiting for death to come.
In a flash, an arrow fell from the sky like lightning and hit the back of the assassin accurately. The assassin let out a shrill scream, shook his body a few times, and fell heavily to the ground.
Almost at the same time, a group of soldiers wearing heavy armor and holding sharp blades rushed into the room like a tide. They moved quickly and orderly, and the sound of their well-trained footsteps seemed to shake the entire palace. The leader was the Grand Commander of the Jingji Camp - An Junyuan!
His eyes were firm and his face was grim. Behind him was a large group of well-equipped soldiers. They surrounded the dead soldiers in an instant like a tiger descending from a mountain. In the flash of swords and shadows, all the dead soldiers were ruthlessly killed, and their blood flowed on the ground, forming a scarlet river of blood.
The prince looked at the scene in front of him, his heart filled with gratitude. His eyes were filled with tears, and he was so excited that he could not speak. He knew very well that if this brave and fearless general had not appeared in time to rescue them, he and the princess would have died long ago.
An Junyuan quickly dismounted and walked towards the prince with steady and firm steps. When he arrived in front of the prince, he bowed slightly, clasped his hands together and saluted, saying in a low and respectful voice: "I am late, please forgive me! I wonder if you are okay?"
Although the prince and the king of Qin were destined to be mortal enemies, An Junyuan was still the Grand Commander of Emperor Wen at this moment and was loyal to him. Therefore, saving the prince, the heir to the throne, was also his unshirkable responsibility as a subject.
The prince's face was as pale as paper, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his eyes were filled with fear. He tightly grasped An Junyuan's sleeve and said in a trembling voice: "Hurry up and save the princess..." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt dizzy and his body was shaking.
The prince looked down at his hands covered in blood, and the fear in his heart grew stronger. His eyes went dark and he fainted on the ground.
Seeing this, An Junyuan hurriedly reached out to support the prince, and shouted to the guards: "Come! Quick! Send the prince and the princess back to the palace!"
Afterwards, a group of guards hurried over, carefully lifted the prince and princess into a gorgeous carriage, and drove to the palace at the fastest speed.
The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were sent to the Eastern Palace, and a large group of imperial doctors were recruited.
Empress Li Qianwan and Prime Minister Li Mingfu also hurried over after hearing the news. After asking about Prince An Junyuan's condition, Emperor Wen did not go to the East Palace to see the prince.
The queen asked anxiously, "Is the prince seriously injured?"
The doctors knelt down and saluted. One of them replied, "Your Majesty, the prince has no external injuries. I have examined him carefully. He must have been frightened and fainted because he fainted due to blood phobia. I have already given him acupuncture. He will wake up soon! But..."
At this point, the imperial physician hesitated for a moment, looked at the prime minister next to him, and then continued, "The Crown Princess was stabbed in the chest by a sword. The injury is too serious. I am incompetent and I am afraid I can't save the Crown Princess!"
Upon hearing the news, the queen's face turned pale instantly. She asked in a trembling voice: "What? You said the Crown Princess..."
When Li Mingfu heard the doctor say they couldn't save her, his face turned pale, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his eyes were filled with fear and despair. He tightly grasped the doctor's arm and asked in a trembling voice, "If you can't save her, who else can save her?"
The doctor shook his head helplessly, pursed his lips slightly, and seemed to be hesitant about whether to say the name. In the end, he whispered: "If the Divine Doctor Xi was here, there might still be a glimmer of hope..."
The Queen's eyes flashed with surprise when she heard this, but she calmed down immediately. She immediately turned to look at Eunuch Lin beside her and anxiously ordered: "Quick, take my token and invite Luo Lingfeng! He is the apprentice of the genius doctor, maybe he can save the Crown Princess!"
Eunuch Lin did not dare to neglect and hurriedly followed the order. The queen waited anxiously, silently praying for a miracle to happen. Li Mingfu clenched his fists, his eyes full of expectation and anxiety.
Time passed by minute by minute, and every moment made people anxious. Finally, there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside the door, followed by a figure running in hurriedly. It was Luo Lingfeng.
Li Mingfu's eyes lit up, as if he had seen the last straw. However, when he saw Luo Lingfeng's expression, he couldn't help but feel worried.
Luo Lingfeng looked at Li Jingshu's wound, his brows furrowed and a heavy look appeared on his face, which made Li Mingfu's heart sink again.
Luo Lingfeng sutured Li Jingshu's wound, fed her the pills developed by Xi Ruming, and finally gave her an acupuncture injection to save her life!
Luo Lingyue said to the Queen: "I have done everything I can, now it depends on whether she can wake up!"
Prime Minister Li Mingfu also frowned. He looked at the queen, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
The queen was silent for a moment, then calmed down. She took a deep breath and said to the doctors, "Do your best to treat the Crown Princess. No matter what, you must find a way to save her life!"
The imperial doctors nodded their heads and said they would do their best. Then, they began to get busy and discuss the next treatment plan with Luo Lingfeng.
The queen turned around and walked to the bedside, looking at the unconscious prince, her eyes full of worry. She gently stroked the prince's cheek, silently praying that he would wake up soon. The prime minister stood aside, watching all this quietly, his eyes full of helplessness and worry.
After the queen dismissed everyone, she looked at the prime minister with a serious face: "I originally thought that the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were now like strangers, so I wanted to create some opportunities for them to be alone, but I never thought that such an unexpected thing would happen!"
The Queen sighed heavily, and her tone became cold and stern: "Your Majesty will not take this matter to heart, but brother must find out who dared to assassinate the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess in the Imperial Ancestral Temple! I will cut this person into pieces!"
The Prime Minister's face was extremely gloomy. He cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will investigate this matter thoroughly and find out who is behind it! But Jingshu had a miscarriage before and hurt her body. I'm afraid she won't be able to get pregnant again in the future..."
Hearing this, the Queen's expression instantly turned ugly. She snorted coldly, "It doesn't matter. Don't I have two nieces? When they give birth to their children, I will give them to Jingshu to raise!"
The prime minister finally breathed a sigh of relief, with a gratified smile on his face. He knew very well that the heir must be a descendant of the Li family in order to ensure the stability of the family's position.
